The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789355224026)

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was published in 1886 and has enthralled its readers ever since. It follows Gabriel John Utterson, a London-based legal practitioner who investigates a series of strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll, and a murderous criminal named Edward Hyde. Idealistic young scientist Henry Jekyll struggles to unlock the secrets of the soul. Testing chemicals in his lab, he drinks a mixture he hopes will isolate - and eliminate - human evil. Instead it unleashes the dark forces within him, transforming him into the hideous and murderous Mr. Hyde.

Today Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is recognized as an incisive study of Victorian morality and sexual repression, as well as a great thriller.
